VILLAINS Sign To Prosthetic Records; “Ketamine” Music Video Released
May 12, 2015, 9 years ago
Fusing aggressive hardcore with their self-branded "noisey street metal", Illinois-based quintet Villains has signed with Prosthetic Records. The group's second album, Freudian Slip, is out now digitally, with physical releases to follow in July.
Self-described as the most heartfelt and definitive Villains release to date, Freudian Slip was originally self-released in November. Since then, the album has maintained a consistent presence on iTunes' Top Metal Albums chart. The group has supported the release by embarking on a coast-to-coast tour with fellow Illinois-based metallists Barrier that included a stop at Texas' annual South By So What?! festival. Previously, the band has been seen alongside such acts as The Browning, This Or The Apocalypse, Kingmaker, Demolisher, Structures, Betrayal, Counterparts, Gift Giver, Dark Sermon and Monuments, just to name a few.
Featuring striking artwork, as seen below, by Orie Mcginness (Enlighten Creative Studio), Freudian Slip is now available via iTunes, Amazon MP3 and Bandcamp. The album will be released worldwide on CD and make its debut on vinyl (standard-weight red and blue color variants) on July 10th. Pre-order packages, which include an exclusive t-shirt design, are available now at this location.
